That's a good point! I'm fine with rim brakes. As far as hubs, I'd prefer to get a drop-in replacement, so I guess I'm looking for a rear wheel with a 9 speed shimano cassette with appropriate spacing to fit dropouts? I could buy the wheel, hub, cassette all separate and built it, but I'd prefer to just by one or a set of two ready to drop in.
